#77318, "Poll question: Which set of rims to go with......tough choice."
ive narrowed my wheel choice down to three. i was leanin towards to 18's for a while but after seeing the car pictured below, im starting to consider the rota's even more. which would you go with?

dont like 100% black rims. look like civic hubcaps. i'd get the last one but in 18s cause i like silver and i like the deep dish rim. and it's probably one of the cheapest.

actually, the rotas are the cheapest. 748 with kumho 712's. the adr's are 800 and the exels are 950. i do love the pimp factor of the exels tho which is why this is such a hard decision.

the one thing thats makin me think about going with the 17's or 18's instead of the lightweight rotas is the fact that i wouldnt be able to upgrade to gsx brakes with the rotas since they are only 16". damn this bein such a tough choice.

Come on man, you already have a slow 2gnt, you aren't goign to gain that much performance out of getting the light weight 16" rotas. Just start rollin' on some pimp ass 18's, call it a day, and start pimpin' some hoes.
Worked for me...but I also have the power to turn the wheels...good luck!

lol i know i dont have the power yet but im planning on boosting within the year so i will have the power then. but when that time comes ill have the power to push the 18s with ease so i guess it doesnt matter too much. i think i might get them.
edit---does anyone know if wheelmax has an email address? i need to ask them something but i dont feel like calling them and they dont have an email addy listed for some reason.

i have decided to go with the 18s because i want to be able to put gsx brakes on once i start boosting; the bling factor doesnt hurt either. it will be a couple months till i get them because im dropping it and puttin some low blitz skirts on first but pics will be up as soon as they are on.

Just FYI... Excel wheels are shit, I had them and I was not happy with them, they bend really easy. I had gunmetal tz-10 Excel's

Also, about Rota wheels, I asked a guy at a local import shop about some Rota Attacks, and he made a few calls while i was there, and his rota dealer told him they stopped selling them, because more than a few people came back to them after saying their wheels "blew apart" on the freeway... ...

Rota's are FUGLY IMO..i think completely black rims are the most hideous thing you can possibly put on a car..now gunmetal or somethin isnt 2 bad, but pure black is just disguisting..get something you know isnt gonna bend in half, and looks nice IMO..the weight wont do 2 much of a difference Mods: E-bay Intake, Vibrant Muffler, J Woodleys Ground Wire Kit, F&R Upper Strut Bars, B&M Short Shifter

yes it will, when I switch from my 14s to 17s it makes a pretty noticeable difference, anyways I would drop it and go with the rota's it will look hottt
